This addon modifies the default Mythic mouse-over target window and ability tooltip to provide a few useful features.
Main Features
- Configurable delayed fade-out for mouse-over targets.
- In order to give you more time to see what you quickly pass over.
- Click mouse-over target window to target.
- Let's you easily target the last friendly target that you moused over. (NPC's and Enemy players are not support.)
- Align the Ability tooltip to different points on the mouse-over target window.
- Let's you change the anchor point so that the mouse-over target window can be placed at the top and left sides of the screen without causing the Ability tooltip to become deformed.
- Adds a proper influence tooltip to the influence bar.
- Just like in the Tome of Knowledge, only shows total needed and percentages for reward levels outstanding.
Known Issues
- Items placed on the HotBar, as well as some other item tooltips attempt to display relative to the MouseOverTargetWindow and are not currently re-anchored with the AbilityTooltip.
- The Delay slider is twitchy and will only track proper values if you drag and release within the confines of the menu item rectangle.
- Clicking the mouse-over target window will not set your target to an NPC. This is a game limitation, not a bug.
- Once your mouse-over target is no longer over a valid target, health updates will no longer occur. This is a game limitation, not a bug.
Future Plans
- Add class information to mouse-over target window.
- Add configuration for enable/disable health bar on mouse-over target window
Not Currently Planned
- The level of customizability of tooltip mods such as CowTip for WoW.
- Re-anchoring of tooltips that aren't default anchored to the MouseOverTargetWindow.
Configuration
Configuration is done through the right-click context menu for the "Mouse Over Target Window" within the Layout Editor. (See Image)

Installation Guide
- Exit "Warhammer Online" completely
- Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
- Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
- Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
- WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
- WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Verify your WAR Installation Path
That is where you are running WAR from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
- Move to the Addon folder
- Open your Warhammer Online folder. (default is C:\Program Files\Warhammer Online\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
- Start Warhammer Online
Translations
When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of WAR. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".
